    Youll notice at the beginning of worship today, and every Sunday during

    the opening hymn, the Bible is brought down the center aisle. It is not

    carried down by someones side, but rather is lifted high. This position of the

    Scriptures is to reflect visually the revered position Gods Word has in ourworship. It occupies the central position on the communion table. We read

    many words during the week (including these!), but the Bible is different.

    When our preaching pastor holds the Bible high after reading Scripture, we

    are again saying, This book is like no other. It contains Gods words to us.

    No wonder our response is Thanks be to God. When Moses went to the

    burning bush, God said to him, Take off your shoes, you are on holy ground.

    When we stand for Scripture reading, were reminded where we are and

    Whose words we are hearing. Make no mistake, we are on holy ground.- Dr. Dan Sharp

    *Passing of the PeaceSt. Paul always greeted with the words, The peace of God be with you. This

    is an appropriate way to greet fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, and so we

    say, The peace of the Lord be with you and respond, And also with you. We

    then pass this greeting of peace to one another. At the passing of the peace we

    should earnestly desire Gods peace upon each person we greet.
